Ok, I've seen a lot of Erin Hunter/Warriors fans. I've also seen a lot of rps inspired by the books, which sadly are fandoms. Fandoms are not allowed in the forums, but that doesn't mean make five copies of a roleplay that'll get locked and then rage at a Moderator. Here is a simple guide on making an rp, unique enough it isn't a fandom.
(Warriors-A book series about cclans of cats, their lives/troubles/other stuff etc...)
This is an exact copy of the rule.
Fandom Roleplays (Warrior Cats, Harry Potter, Marvel, etc) are not allowed on the forum. You can roleplay a similar idea, but without content from the fandom. For example, a clan of cats is ok, as long as no characters, names, places, concepts, ideas, etc from the warrior cats books are used. If you want to roleplay fandoms, you may do so in your gamemail, or in the scenes.
Names: The first step towards a 'fandom'
Warriors has unique names, such as the 'kit','paw', and then warrior name. They also have _______clan, and _____star for the clan and leader. If you name everything like how the books are, it'll definitely be locked... Also ranks.
Leader
Kittypet
Twolegs
Medicine cat
Kits
Queens
Warriors
Apprentices
Make names that are similar, but not the same.
Instead of Newclan, how about The New Age Cats? Change it up a bit?
Starclan: Starclan is 100% warriors, all in the books, big nono unless you want your roleplay locked.
Names2: No using 'Star', 'kit', or 'paw' to give ranks That's technically book content.
Clans: Yes, the rule example says clans of cats are fine, but to make it more your own, use something else. Like, alliance, or group, or something else.
Not really sure what else to say, this was supposed to be a basic guide. XP No questions to me, this was something I just made to help, any questions about rules should go to a mod.
Basic Idea for a set up:
~The new age Cats~
Leader: Birch
Trainee: Littleleaf
Second in command: Nixon
Trainee:
Leaderhealer: Dewdrop
Trainee: Snowy
Lead Hunter: Razor
Hunters:
-
-
-
-
-
Trainees:
-
-
-
Lead guard/ patrol cat: Dogface
Guards/ patrol cats:
-
-
-
-
-
Trainees:
-
-
-
Nurses: (care for kittens)
-
-
-
Retired: )Name the previous rank)
-
-
-
This not to get by the 'no fandom' rule, just a point in the right direction since there have been many that have been locked.
Bye... :P
If this is not allowed, sorry. ><
